`float` (32-bit) and `double` (64-bit) with + - * / %, comparisons and unary minus.
Decimal literals take their type from context and stay `fixed` elsewhere; int and long
promote implicitly (LUDIC_WARN_FLOAT_PROMOTE=1 lists every promotion). float(), double(),
int(), long() and fixed() convert; floats(n)/doubles(n) buffers; float fields, globals,
constants and parameters; Math.* computes in float for float arguments; string/print
write the shortest round-tripping decimal; float_bits/float_from_bits expose the bits.
@deterministic code may not use floats. The f_* runtime helpers stay as they are.
Editors know the new type words; the JetBrains plugin is 1.5.0.

De-abbreviate the two bare fixed-point conversion builtins:
flr(f) -> int -> floor(f) -> int (fixed -> int, flooring)
fx(i) -> fixed -> fixed(i) -> fixed (int -> fixed; mirrors how the
stringify builtin is `string`)
Updates the compiler dispatch, all call sites, the grammars/LSP/JetBrains
tokens, and the docs (fn-flr -> fn-floor, fn-fx -> fn-fixed). Reseeded;
C-free fixpoint holds; all suites green (45/24/29); site + check.py OK.

Finish the unblocked "Math / Ease" half of #25: the fixed-point
transcendentals deferred from #2. Vec.* stays blocked on the vec2 type
in #1.
- Math.exp, Math.log (natural), Math.pow — deterministic Q16.16 via two
new prelude fns in emit_math_prelude: @fn_fx_exp2 (range-reduced 5th-order
Taylor 2^f, then a clamped shift by the integer part) and @fn_fx_log2
(llvm.ctlz for the exponent + an atanh series on (m-1)/(m+1) for the
mantissa). exp=2^(x·log2 e), log=log2(x)·ln2, pow=2^(b·log2 a).
- Ease.elastic — ease-out elastic 2^(-10t)·sin((10t-0.75)·2pi/3)+1.
- Pure integer IR, so bit-identical on every platform. Results must fit the
Q16.16 range (|x| < 32768); larger magnitudes saturate (documented).
Test selfhost/tests/transcend.ludic (registered in the self-host suite) +
docs for all four. Reseeded; the C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds. All suites
green (24 self-host, 45 regression, 29 tool).

Implement the bulk of the namespaced-stdlib proposal (workshopsoft/ludic#2):
156 namespace methods across Math, Text, List, Ease, Collide, World, Net,
Sys, Save, Mem, extended Screen, Color functions, extended Random, and Time.
All deterministic fixed-point; self-hosting (C-free bootstrap fixpoint holds).
Compiler (selfhost/):
- Math.*: sqrt/sin/cos/tan/atan2/asin/acos (fixed-point runtime prelude —
bit-by-bit isqrt, 256-entry interpolated sine table, Ross atan2), plus
hypot/dist/dist2/deg_to_rad/rad_to_deg/posmod/wrap/ping_pong/snapped/
move_toward/smoothstep/lerp/remap/sign/floor/ceil/round.
- Text.* (complete): upper/lower/trim/repeat/pad, split/join/replace,
and the libc-backed queries.
- List.* (complete): insert/remove_at/remove/sort plus the earlier ops.
- Ease.* (in/out/in_out/back/bounce) and Collide.* (rects/point_rect/
circles/rect_circle).
- Phase 3: World/Net/Sys/Save namespaced over the bare builtins (byte-
identical IR) and Mem.* (bytes/words/copy/fill/peek/poke).
- Screen.* extended (line/circle/fill_circle/triangle/fill_triangle via new
runtime primitives; sprite/sprite_scaled aliases), Color.* functions,
Random.* (value/int/sign), Time.* (frame/delta/elapsed/now — new
game-loop frame counter).
- Fix a lexer bug: fixed-point literals with >4 fractional digits overflowed.
Docs & tooling:
- 129 new per-symbol doc pages; gen.py made data-driven (namespaces
discovered from the docs, no hardcoded list); new check-impl.py enforces
that every implemented namespace method / keyword / type / phase has a
doc page, wired into `x test-tools`. Document the previously-undocumented
keywords (break/continue/where/entry/new/public + and/or/not tokens).
- LSP: namespaced signature help (ns_method_sig) covering every namespace.
Tests: 12 new self-host/regression tests + a golden render for the drawing
primitives. All suites green (selfhost 21, regression 45, tools 29).
